Ann Coulter On Sarah Palin Running For President: ‘I Wouldn’t If I Were Her’



Ann Coulter may spend a great deal of time professionally speculating on who will end up running the nation, but tonight on CNN she toldPiers Morgan that among the most insulting questions she has ever received has been “Why don’t you run for president?” Given her base-level aversion to the office, she told Morgan she couldn’t imagine Sarah Palin throwing her hat in the ring: “I wouldn’t if I were in her shoes.”

The segment of her interview with Morgan tonight focused on potential 2012 hopefuls, and Coulter began by reiterating a point she has made very vocally for some months: New Jersey Governor Chris Christie should run for President. That said, she argued that she didn’t see Republicans losing next year: “Obama has such a glass jaw that we might even win with [Mitt] Romney.”

Morgan then asked about the great unknown of the 2012 race, Sarah Palin. Is she running? “I haven’t the first Idea,” she confessed, but “I wouldn’t if I were in her shoes, not President. Maybe Senator or something.” This launched a mini-tirade on how awful being Commander in Chief must be: “It is the worst job imaginable, both running and holding the office.” And as Palin is “virtually the biggest thing on the planet,” Coulter argued, “Why would you wreck your life running for President?” Coulter went on, sharing an amusing anecdote about how insulted she was when people called for her to run for President– “it’s like saying ‘you’re the CEO of a company– why don’t you become a dog walker?’




Five advantages of trading forex market .

1. 24 Hour Market: Since the forex market is worldwide, trading is continuous as long as there is a market open somewhere in the world. Trading starts when the markets open in Australia on Sunday evening, and ends after markets close in New York on Friday.

2. High Liquidity: Liquidity is the ability of an asset to be converted into cash quickly and without any price discount. In forex this means we can move large amounts of money into and out of foreign currency with minimal price movement.

3. Low Transaction Cost: In forex, typically the cost for a transaction is built into the price. It is called the spread. The spread is the difference between the buying and selling price.

4. Leverage: Forex Brokers allow traders to trade the market using leverage. Leverage is the ability to trade more money on the market than what is actually in the trader's account. If you were to trade at 50:1 leverage, you could trade $50 on the market for every $1 that was in your account. This means you could control a trade of $50,000 using only $1000 of capital.

5. Profit Potential from Rising and Falling Prices: The forex market has no restrictions for directional trading. This means, if you think a currency pair is going to increase in value; you can buy it, or go long. Similarly, if you think it could decrease in value you can sell it, or go short.

There's two of them! Sarah Palin bumps into her double as One Nation tour rolls into Boston



Sarah Palin had already managed to arrive in Boston at the same time as her Republican rival, Mitt Romney.


But today the former Alaskan governor also bumped into another very familiar face - Cecilia Thompson, a professional Palin impersonator.


Smiling broadly as she hugged her mirror image, the publicity-hungry Mrs Palin even had a job offer for Mrs Thompson - press spokesman.

As her bemused father, Chuck Heath, looked on, she said: 'Now you go talk to all these reporters. And you speak for me.’






Mrs Thompson, from New England, was waiting for Mrs Palin in the pews when she arrived to visit Old North Church on her One Nation bus tour.

Bristol Palin earned her$262,500, foundation head says

ANCHORAGE, Alaska (Reuters) - Bristol Palin earned the$262,500 she was paid to advocate for abstinence and against teen pregnancy in 2009, the head of a nonprofitgroup that paid her said on Wednesday.
"Bristol did a tremendous amount of work for us -- many, many days and weeks," said Neil Cole, founder of the nonprofit Candie's Foundation.
The daughter of former Alaska governor Sarah Palin became a single mother at age 18 and last year her profile rose when she was a fan favorite on ABC show"Dancing with the Stars."
She was already famous, in part for being pregnant during Sarah Palin's 2008 campaign as the Republican vice presidential candidate, and for her on-and-off relationship with the father of her child, Levi Johnston.
The New York-based foundation is an offshoot of the fashion brand Candie's, which is part of Iconix Brand Group Inc. Cole is chairman, CEO and president of Iconix.
Sarah Palin has generated controversy almost from the moment 2008 Republican presidential contender Sen. John McCain named her as hisrunning mate, and Cole said that applies to Bristol Palin also, which helps his organization.
"She is such a lightning rod," Cole said. "Everyone is familiar with the Palins, and Bristol turned out to be, as someone said today, the gift that keeps on giving."
Some commentators have criticized the payments.
But Cole defended the foundation's 2009 practice ofspending only $35,000 on direct health and assistance services, versus the money paid to Bristol Palin.
"The foundation's purpose is not to make grants to direct providers; it is to raise awareness," he said. "We're very proud of our work."
The $262,500 payment from Candie's Foundation to Bristol Palin for her work in 2009 was detailed in financial statements from the nonprofit organization.

Julianne Moore será "Sarah Palin"


Quizá porque en EEUU no hay monarquía, a quienes sacan en cine es a los políticos.
Sarah Palin, la ex gobernadora de Alaska tendrá su película "Game Change".
Pensé que sería una serie de televisión al ver la productora que está detrás de este film, la HBO.
Al menos sabemos que HBO, canal de televisión por cable, tiene calidad en sus series y telemovies.
"Game Change" se basa en un libro de Mark Halperin y John Heilemann acerca de las elecciones presidenciales de 2008.

Julianne Moore será la encargada de dar vida en la película a Sarah Palin...¿Quien hará de Obama Will Smith o Eddie Murphy?, o George Clooney muy bronceado???
